Hello... Ingrown toe nails isn't an as simple as condition as it seems to be. It should be treated with a proper protocol, where the excess nail has to be removed along with the nail bed and few layers of germinal epithelium, or as u say the layer which give rise to the nail alongwith. If the condition isn't resolving then kindly consult an appropriate doctor, podiatrist preferably. U can contact me as well.
